German police have detained two teenagers, an Afghan and a Russian, suspected of planning an imminent Islamist terrorist attack on a Christmas market or a synagogue in Cologne. The teenagers, who consider themselves members of ISIS, were preparing a terrorist attack using a lorry and incendiary devices. This foiled plot echoes the 2016 Christmas market truck attack in Berlin by a Muslim asylum seeker that killed 13 people. The authorities have taken swift action to prevent a potential tragedy.
